Experimental Infection of Southern Flounder Paralichthys lethostigma with Neoheterobothrium hirame (Monogenea: Diclidophoridae).

Gonadal differentiation and effects of temperature on sex determination in southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma)

Southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma) support valuable North American fisheries and show great promise for aquaculture. Because females grow faster and reach larger adult sizes than males, monosex culture of females is desirable for commercial operations. A detailed understanding of sexual development and its timing is critical to control sex and optimize culture. Structural and cellular...

Fine-scale movements and habitat use of juvenile southern flounder Paralichthys lethostigma in an estuarine seascape.

Habitat use of juvenile southern flounder Paralichthys lethostigma was examined within a shallow estuarine seascape during June and July 2011 using acoustic telemetry. Fine-scale movement and habitat use of P. lethostigma was investigated with an acoustic positioning system placed in a seascape that varied in habitat type, physicochemical conditions and bathymetry. The use of different habitat ...
